UVI Vintage Vault 3 - The Ultimative Vintage Synthesizer Collection with 65 instruments


Published on Jan 10, 2020 RetroSound

"VINTAGE VAULT 3

I think many of you guys know that I work since many years together with #UVI.
So I have sampled most of my #Vintage #Synths for UVI products like OB Legacy, String Machines 2, Synth Anthology 2 and more.

Now here is the brand new Vintage Vault 3 with 65 vintage instruments and over 500.000 high quality samples.
As synth maniac since a very long time I must that high quality samples are more realistic as virtual synthesis.
All the vintage synths I show in the video and a lot more are included in Vintage Vault3.

"Today we explain ADSR: Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release. This is a fundamental feature of subtractive synthesis and the first step to building sounds!"

MIDI Mod on the iPhone as a Performance Utility - an AN1x style patch on the Prophet Rev2


Published on Jan 9, 2020 thesrabbit

MIDI Mod Overview video further below. You can find it in the App Store here.

Spotted this one on discchord.

"I love the sound of the AN1x, but programming it is not the quickest experience. The Rev2 has similar capabilities from a sound design perspective (plus a whole lot of things that the AN1x can't do). However, the AN1x has an awesome effects section that blows away that of most modern synths. In this video, I use MIDI Mod to do some fairly simple routings, just using the Mod Matrix. No LFO's, envelopes, arps, or anything else.

MIDI Mod is running on an iPhone X, hooked up to the MeeBlip Cubit Go via USB. MIDI out of the Cubit Go is running to the MIDI In on the Rev2. And MIDI Out of the Rev 2 is going to MIDI In on the Cubit Go. This gives MIDI Mod 2-way communication with the Rev2. Now this could easily be done without DIN cables at all, just connecting MIDI Mod directly to the Rev2 over USB. But later in the video, external effects are added to level the playing field with the AN1x on that front, somewhat. One of the pedals (Ventris Dual Reverb) has a MIDI input and so there's a MIDI DIN cable running to that as well.

The idea behind the patch isn't to recreate the exact patch on the Rev2, but to create a similar patch from a structural point of view. 2 layers, one as a pad, and 1 as an arp spanning multiple octaves. With the ability to fade the arp in and out via the modwheel. "Program Volume" is not a modulation destination on the Rev2 itself, but we can easily access it with MIDI Mod (or almost any other of the bazillion parameters on the Rev2).

In addition, Note (MIDI Note) is routed to Layer A Pan Spread and Layer B Pan Spread on two different slots. Layer A has the arp, and so the range is set to 63-127 to throw the voices out wider. Layer B is the pad, so the range is restricted to 0-12 to keep things more centered, which makes that aspect of the sound a little more meaty, especially the lower notes. This can easily be adjusted to taste.

Finally, the modwheel is assigned to the pre-delay time of the Ventris later on in the video when the external effects are brought in.

The point of this is to illustrate what you might do with MIDI Mod in a pinch, to get that little extra something. Made even easier now that you can do it just by using your phone!

MIDI Mod for iPad - Full Overview with the Yamaha Reface CS

Published on Jul 6, 2019 thesrabbit

"This video uses the Yamaha Reface CS and Arturia Keystep to provide a full rundown of MIDI Mod's major features, including:

LFOs
Envelopes
Arpeggiator
Mod Matrix
Sync and App Settings

MIDI Mod's Main Features:
4 LFOs
3 Envelopes (delay and hold, loopable, 2 ADSR, one 4-stage with individual level controls)
Arpeggiator with an auto-transpose sequencer (sequencer of a sequence) and modulation capabilities
32-slot mod matrix with fine tune value ranges for each assignment and inversion (negative)
Mod sources include the LFOs, envelopes, arp note on, arp note off, and when used with an external keyboard, you get Aftertouch, Velocity, note (key tracking), Pitchbend, Modwheel, and expression as mod sources.

What sets MIDI Mod apart is ease of use when making assignments. It comes with over 50 pre-defined device mappings. So there's no need to dig through your user manual or midi implementation chart. Just select the manufacturer, model, and parameter name from the menu. Additionally, you have a ton of internal routings that can be made. For example, LFO 2 could modulate LFO 1's rate, Envelope 2 could control LFO 2's mod depth, and so on."

Trumpet and Buchla Modular Synth | Sarah Belle Reid


Published on Jan 10, 2020 Sarah Belle Reid

"In which I connect my sensor-based augmented trumpet MIGSI to the Buchla 200 and 100 modular synthesizer systems for the first time. MIGSI uses sensors to collect gestural data from the trumpet as I'm playing, and sends that as serial data over to a computer running Max/MSP. In this video I'm using the Expert Sleepers ES-8 module to convert signals from MIGSI into control voltage, which is being used to modulate a patch on the Buchla.

"Anyone reading this knows why they want it. Crisp sharp envelopes. Bright rich sound. Like MODX with addition of formant filters. Use FS1R free editor (PC/OSX) for easy access to entire synth engine. The sheer magnitude of parameters is very deep. A sound designer's dream machine."

You can also find an iPad editor for the FS1R here.

"The Diamond Dreams MT-404 Custom by Peter Edwards of Casper Electronics & Bastl fame.

This is portable live performance art in your hand; the stuff usually reserved for names like Patton and Elfman.

It is a prototype. The only one.

I am including the original notes and instructions that accompanied this instrument. A lot of time was spent considering how the musician/user would interface with the device respecting what it was capable of at extremes of deviation from the manufacturer's specification.

Note the little catch so the battery compartment door can't get away from you. The battery compartment is clean and it will run on batteries. It also comes with a wall wart style a/c cable so you can plug it into an outlet in studio and not worry about battery life.

This level of technical design and craft is truly exceptional. R2-D2 love songs, Aleatoric effects, gibberish, future-retro sci-fi grime and garbage.

Someone is going to be very happy."
